Just as treasures are uncovered from the earth, so virtue appears from good deeds, and wisdom appears from a pure and peaceful mind. To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue.

  • -- Gautama Buddha 释伽牟尼

智慧从清洁和平安的心而生,好像百物从地里露出来一样。要安全地走过人生的迷宫,就需要智慧之光和美德的指引。
